The Tragedy of Princess Zelda I refers to the series of events that leads up to a sleeping spell being cast on the Princess Zelda seen in The Adventure of Link. This was originally intended to explain the "legend of Zelda," with the Prince of Hyrule issuing a decree that all princesses should be named "Zelda." However, this princess's position as the first Zelda has been retconned according to Hyrule Historia, and the "legend of Zelda" has been replaced with the story in Skyward Sword.
Hiding the Triforce of Courage
After the events of A Link to the Past, the Triforce returned to the hands of the Hylian Royal Family and the kingdom experienced an age of prosperity. The Triforce was passed down from generation to generation until one king deemed his son unworthy to wield the responsibility of the Triforce. Rather than have its full power corrupt the prince, he hid the Triforce of Courage so the prince could only inherit the Triforce in part. He also cast a spell such that when someone worthy of the Triforce appeared, the mark of the Triforce would appear on on his hand.
